Free walking tour essenziale del quartiere Yungay

I attended the Yungay tour over a month ago, and still remember every detail! As a tour guide, Claudio is not only super knowledgeable, experienced with, and passionate about Santiago’s oldest neighborhood, he’s extremely engaging; time just flew by. At first I was rather hesitant to take the tour on this particular day, since no one else showed up, but, in fact, am glad I did — During this solo excursion, Claudio allowed me special exhibitions, and extra time in certain places, all of which would not have been permitted with a large group. I had a personal moment nearing the end of the tour as he and I sat quietly on a pew inside a beautiful church while he articulated, with a preacher’s conviction, a miraculous story in which the saint’s statue adjacent to the alter was unperturbed during a major earthquake. After Claudio and I parted parted ways, I returned to the same pew where we had sat, meditating in contemplation upon the mysterious saint; and, after making my prayers (as I once did in my bygone days as a Catholic) and giving thanks to the divine, took up Claudio’s suggestions for nearby coffee and almuerzo. I would recommend the Yungay tour with Claudio for anyone — tourist or local — interested in gaining a deeper knowledge of Santiago’s oldest neighborhood, while also enjoying its unique blend of history and culture, all with with a Santiago-born native. Muchisimas gracias, Claudio! 5/5🌟

Claudio was a great guide, very eloquent, calm and authentic. We learned about the art in the neighbourhood and the changes the neighbourhood has gone through in the past 150 years.

I really really enjoyed this tour. The stories that were told were so interesting! Can not recommend this tour enough!!! 🙌🏼

Wir waren den 1.Tag in Santiago de Chile und haben einen sehr guten Einblick in das Barrio Yungay bekommen mit vielen interessanten Informationen und einigen Spots, die wir alleine nicht entdeckt hätten. Würde es wieder buchen!

I was literally the only one in the tour. So we were able to digress into topics that I questioned the guide on. MJ was professional and happily answered all questions. We even stopped and chatted with a barber at a saloon which was part of the tour. Amazing experience. Highly recommend.
